Any spillages must be reported to the MMO marine pollution response team within the timeframes specified in the marine pollution contingency plan.

(5) At least 10 days before commencement of the licensed activities, the undertaker must submit to the MMO an audit sheet covering all aspects of the construction of the licensed activities or any phase of them. The audit sheet must include details of—
(a)loading facilities;
(b)vessels;
(c)equipment;
(d)shipment routes;

(g)all components and materials to be used in the construction of the authorised scheme.
(6) The audit sheet must be maintained throughout the construction of the authorised scheme (or relevant phase) and must be submitted to the MMO for review at fortnightly intervals.
(7) In the event that the MMO becomes aware that any of the materials on the audit sheet cannot be accounted for, it must require the undertaker to carry out a side-scan sonar survey to plot all obstructions across a reasonable area of search agreed with the MMO where construction works and related activities have been carried out. Representatives of the Holderness Fishing Industry Group must be invited to send a representative to be present during the survey. Any obstructions that the MMO believes to be associated with the authorised scheme must be removed at the undertaker’s expense.
